AOC gets paid twice as much as her highest paid aid. She should be asked if that’s equitable. She could have redistributed 50% of her salary to make things fair.
The takeaway line from the Lifson piece. She doesn't have a clue. She will learn. The only questions are how fast, and whether the learning process will be ugly, painful or funny. Or all three.
Sounds like a pattern...
At the end of the night, when it came time to split the $560 in tips she had gotten at the bar, Ocasio-Cortez gave the waitress only $50. After the waitress complained to her manager, her take was doubled to $100, a source said.

If she really wants a true Socialist utopia, she needs to redistribute her pay so that she makes 52K too.
Would mean something if she included her $174,000 salary in the mix.
Socialists only redistribute other people’s money.
I may be wrong (and I probably am) but wouldn’t her staff be federal employees and not her employees? Wouldn’t they be paid according to whatever their position is on the government pay scale?
from the article:
“Even more importantly, the logic of equality doesnt stop with her own salary, which is set by law at $174,000.”
So I’m assuming there’s not stopping her from taking $100,000 or so of that salary and distributing it equally as a bonus to her staff. But if I were them I wouldn’t hold my breath.
It is well known that an experiment on a small biased sample cannot be extrapolated to the larger population.
People who would agree to work for AOC under any conditions and that AOC would agree to employ are a very, very small sample. They are biased in favor of AOC. They will take one for the team.
Regardless of the AOC experiment it is illogical to assume that it tells us anything about the larger population.
No. The top is Cortez. She's not diverting part of her salary.
It's not a sacrifice unless you're doing it. President Trump donates his entire salary to worthy causes. Cortez donates other people's salaries...and her mouth.
Egalitarianism abolishes causality in the earning of income, resulting in people doing too little, and it abolishes causality in the spending of income, causing people to be unconcerned about cost, resulting in people spending too much. The evasion of causality is one of the signs and symptoms of irrationality.
Why doesn’t she cut her staff in half and pay them double?
Her MRA is somewhere in the range of $1.2 million per year, it’s up to her how she spends it, under the 18 full-time employee limit. Of course should could add in her own salary and divide it up equally if she wanted to be a good socialist...
Pay your Generals and Privates the same as your Sergeants or pay the people that do all the work the same a the coffee fetchers ,smells like Communism
Why doesn’t she give some of her pay to her minions
I want to see Chelsea Clinton run against her next year. Talk about and epic cat fight...
“Congress, which loves spending taxpayers money, already is studying giving better pay to lower level staff (meaning increasing their own allowances for staff)”
Each congressional member is allocated money for their staff. However they choose to split it up is up to them.
Under the rules of Socialism, everyone in AOC’s office, including AOC herself, would get equal pay.
OR, everyone would get paid based on the Socialist formula of from each according to his abilities to each according to his needs.
The first alternative would be simple to implement. The second would result in every employee claiming to have greater financial needs than his/her co-workers, and be virtually unworkable.
In practice, the first alternative has never worked because some Socialists have always considered themselves to be more equal than others and have taken higher pay, leaving their comrades in poverty at best or starving to death a la Venezuela.
By refusing to take an equal salary to her staff, AOC would be joining the illustrious group of Socialist leaders she so admires, from Josef Stalin to Fidel Castro to Nicolas Maduro.
Is she cutting her own pay as part of this scheme
FTA: cutting the pay at the top
Does this mean her salary too?
